| Summary: | The eight tales are listed on an unpaginated contents page at the back of the volume and at least five of these were transcribed, sometimes with light editing from British periodicals of the early 1820's suggesting a probable date for the compilation of this anthology of c. 1824. The first and fourth essay had appeared in Blackwood's Magazine; the second by Leigh Hunt in "The Indicator" c. 1820; the fifth in the "New Monthly Magazine" in 1822 and the eight in "The London Magazine" in 1823. |
